Chaos in the friendly skies
Liberty did shield her eyes
And this was one day like any other
Before a brother betrayed another
Woman trembling cold and pale
Taken through the daily mail
But this was one life that should have mattered
Before the circuits of death were scattered
This was one of a series
A chain of events
Delivered in silence
It doesn't make sense
Children dancing in the street
Flaming banner at their feet
And this was one complicated vision
Of an unavailing decision
This was one for the register
Slipping of time
When the more you deplete us
The higher we climb
Yes, the higher we climb
First one falls and then there's two
The colors bleeding red, white, blue
But humanity cannot replace
The victims in the fall from grace
Again the chant, again
Again the chant, again
Again the chant, again
Again the chant, again
Seconds
Young boy hiding in a locker room
A pencil in his hand
Grinding circles into the wall
He doesn’t understand
Why the others treat him as invisible
Or they punch him with their smiles
He dreams of a place where there is no shade
A platform to be seen for miles
Close your eyes
Let the moments pass
Like sand grain seconds
Through an hourglass
Young boy climbing to a desert high
A message in his hand
Tracing circles around the clouds
His destiny is planned
Would the airwaves choke when it made the news?
Would the television sigh?
Ghost reporters in a bitter sun
Taking lessons in the way to die
Better to forget than to comprehend
Imagination colliding with real
Gone without a trace from an empty place
Leaving nothing sacred, nothing to reveal
Damon dancing into the light
A microphone in his hand
Turning circles across the stage
They move to his command
And the audience doesn’t know about that day
When he gambled with the sacred breath
But his blood runs sober as the curtains fall
Like the sand upon the face of death
Better to remember and memorize
Every motion that carried you here
Couldn’t change the time only your state of mind
As the scars upon your spirit disappear
When your world begins to fray
When the rules refuse to play
Somewhere there is promise for another serving
When the soul begins to bleed
A moment is all you need
Long enough to feel the weight of your decision
Hesitate and regain your vision
Seconds separate you from the fall
Save a moment
Oxygen
I am your air, your life support
Under care of every breath you're making
Only here, where the signs appear
Do I fear that the bonds are breaking
Oxygen
The cornerstone in the pit of men
Mightier than the perfect pen
And on occasion assemble when you breathe
I'm
in the cell, the molecule
I can tell when you're allocating
Heaven sent to your element
Monument to the innocent
My intent is to represent
Complement when all is dissipating
Oxygen
The cradle for every citizen
Regenerating the specimen
A pure invasion delivered when you breathe
Satellite
Yesterday
an audience of one
No distortion or imperfect harmony
But today I stand, staring at the sun
Ever blinded by celestial naivety
A
message sent, and no reply
Did you receive the last transmission
Loud and clear?
I'm standing by
Just waiting for a sign beyond this atmosphere
Communicate conditions
Occupy this common frequency
And save me from uncertainty
I
can feel your absence, cold like steel
Twisting gently from a distant place
As the stages fall away, reveal
Every question, every disappointed face
A
signal flare into the sky
And it was bright enough for anyone to see
How did it die
Without a hope, without a possibility?
My satellite in silence
Orbiting where no one can relate
Is this the disconnection date?
Waiting
for the distant star to fall
No
telescope, no ship to fly
And I have nothing left but virtuality
The naked eye
Can never justify with objectivity
Reception interrupted
Images dissolve upon the screen
What does it mean?
Detection fading with pure ambiguity
Don't dignify
This is goodbye
Someone
Is You
I
remember the days
Before you entered my shores
I was strong in my ways
Had my own to live for
I was invincible
Or so it would seem
Until I lay down my head
And woke up in a dream
I
could harness the skies
I could fly without wing
But if you looked into my eyes
You could read everything
An image of unity
In the face of alone
Always challenging fate
If only I had known
That
I needed someone to believe in me
When I don't believe myself
Someone to have faith in me
When I lose faith in someone else
And I need someone to speak for me
When an answer is due
Someone, that someone is you
Undiscovered
and strange
These emotions so bare
But with each sign of change
Something always stood there
The need for a hero
A delicate clue
Didn't know I was lost
Until I found you
And all I need is someone to pray for me
When I haven't a prayer
Someone to breathe me life
When I'm gasping for air
And I need someone to love me
When forever is through
Someone, that someone is you
Someone, that someone is you
Someone, that someone is you

Utopia
When
the world outside is cold
Visitation to days of old
Images of once before
Held behind a clever door
Revelations intertwined
With episodes unkind
And
every fear
Will disappear
When you are here
If
I ask, I shall receive
An invitation to make-believe
Showing nightly in a dream
One recurring theme
On
holiday
From what they say
No mission gray
So let's pretend
Time has no end
For one more day
Utopia
is a moment at your side
When perfect possibilities are open wide
Boy
and girl beneath our skin
Pleading us to let them in
Delicate in every sense
Hidden from present-tense
A
game to play
In our own way
No time decay
Anticipate
It's not too late
For yesterday
Utopia
is eternity you share
Make a trip to the other side
And my heart will linger there
Utopia is the laughter in your skies
Where I'm ascending
Every time I close my eyes
Utopia
is the color of your mind
Where the shades of reality
Are simply left behind
